Streamline your hiring with these candidate questions

Is your small business hiring? Then you want to find the best candidates, especially in a tight labor market. 

We have some questions that can help you assess a candidate’s qualifications, experience and fitness for the job. Just remember to tailor the questions to your specific opening and your company’s environment. We hope these questions can serve as a starting point.  

And, if you want to make the hiring process fast and digital, we can help with Hiring by Fingercheck. We made the hiring process more efficient by making life easier for you so that you can focus on growing your small business.
